This issue can be resolved if SMH offset between APP and MAIN module
values doesn’t deviate by too much. If the offset is closer (by say few hours), we can
sync them back together by performing a manual reset of ECM clock. However, if
the offset difference is on the higher end, it would require additional diagnosis to be
carried out to trace the communication route between different ECMs on the
machine, identify the root cause and then fix the issue.

Impact of the Issue: All the file types except Event files and Cumulative files
are being corrupted resulting in missing important data from the machine needed
for analysis.
Resolution steps: : The latest release of the HIM Software Version prevents
VIMS data logger files from corrupting when downloaded from HIM over a CAN
connection. This issue is addressed in the latest HIM software release v2.0.4. The
latest HIM version has an option to download data logger files every 15 minutes
and other file types as required. Setting the download of data logger files to every
15 minutes would prevent the corruption and resolve the issue. Please find the
HIM latest release notes in the link below.

Issue Description: This issue is triggered when the file generated by VIMS box
is named with a future time inside the filename of the file. For example, if a file is
generated on 31st July, 2017, ideally the VIMS box should be generating a file with
the name as ABC00123170731153045.DL. Instead (whenever this issue triggers),
it’s generating the filename as ABC00123170831153045.DL (which is offset by 1
month).
Impact of the Issue: The files with this issue can’t be processed accurately for
conducting the necessary post-processing downstream analyses. This also means
that data inside these files remain unused for any useful analyses by the respective
consumers of this data. For example, if the data consumer is interested to conduct an
analysis over the date ranging between 25th Jul, 2017 and 31st Jul, 2017, the user will
not be able to use the file ABC00123170831153045.DL (which actually falls under
the specified time interval i.e. this file was originally generated on 31 st Jul, 2017)
because it doesn’t meet the time range criteria and any data inside that file won’t be
useful because the data is tied to data and timestamps.
Resolution steps:
a. If this issue is triggered on a machine running on previous versions of VIMS
software, the best recommendation is to upgrade the software to the latest
VIMS version to overcome the known issues with older software.
b. However, if the issue is triggered on the machine running on the current or the
latest software version of VIMS, it is suspected that it could have been
manually reset to an incorrect time in the future. Hence, it is advised to
manually reset the time on the ECM clock back to the current time using the
ET (Electronic Technician).

Assets Sending files with Huge file sizes. Mostly Payload and
Trend files.
Issue Description: This issue is triggered when the Trend file or Payload file is
not reset after every download. This creates duplicate records in the file and
increase in the file size. This issue is applicable for all file types and not limited to
Trend or Payload.
Impact of the Issue: As a result, we are seeing huge size files which has
duplicate data in it and takes longer time to process on our side thus adding extra
load on servers. There are also chances of file getting corrupted while transmission
due to poor site internet connectivity. Transmitting huge files can lead to increase
in transmission cost.
Resolution steps: This issue can be resolved by configuring the settings on the
machine. Reset after every download is recommended.
Screen shot: As shown in the below screen shot configuring reset after every
download will resolve this issue
